Hi Folks, Is there some certain set of circumstances that would cause spamc to completely skip a message? Or is there a particular set of circumstances where spamc won't make any marks on a message? I was expecting that spamc would make a mark on all messages it examined, either to say X-Spam-Status: Yes or X-Spam-Status: No... More and more spam is slipping through lately (which is to be expected, I suppose), but a lot of it has no sa headers at all, which almost suggests it's not getting scanned. Here's the juicy bits of my /etc/procmailrc file; maybe someone will see something wrong with it?
:0fw | /usr/bin/spamc # In two months of monitoring, I haven't seen a single false-positive. # so /dev/null the >= 6 spam scorers :0 * ^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\* /dev/null # Copy everything else to spamchek :0c /var/mail/spamchek To my novice eye, that says "filter through spamc and wait for its output, then /dev/null anything over 6, and then copy everything that's left to spamchek".. I know that procmail itself doesn't seem to be fouling up, because I'm getting copies of mail in spamchek as I expect. It's almost as though the spam originator has found either a way to cause spamc to choke on the message, or a way to prevent spamc's headers from being properly inserted into the message. Anyone else seen and defeated this issue? Thanks greatly, ~Brian ---------------- Brian A.
